Zach POV
I lay on my bed, trying to get enough nerve to go down – to where all of the others would be – and try and explain my reaction yesterday.
Come on you are Zach Flipping Goode, the smart part of my brain said, but why is it that you always end up not listening to that part. Like if the smart part of your brain said not to go and touch the really poisonous snake, you would still do it anyway just to touch it. The one that every girl falls over. It tried again but the only thing that I had in response to that was that 'if every girl fell all over me, then why wasn't Cammie?' a question that you can't answer up here! My brain was screaming at me.
"Good point." I said and I got up, I walked to the door, and then walked back. "COME on!" I said to myself and walked back to the door. "Stop being a girl." I told myself as I twisted the handle. I pulled open the door, put on my best cocky/sexy/probably-annoying smirk and walked down the stairs.
"It's him!" Grant said as I walked in to the room. I walked over to him and slapped him on the back.
Then Macey added, "The Zach we know, and hate is back!" Bex laughed, I looked around seeing who was there.
"Where's Cammie?" I asked and everyone looked at me.
"She thinks you're angry at her." They said and I laughed.
"Psh...why would she think that?...Psh!" I scratched my head and looked at the floor.
Liz – for once – put her opinions out there. "Because you were a complete moron, and a jerk." She looked at me sweetly, while Bex and Macey looked at her shocked.
Jonas also looked shocked and I laughed at all of their faces. Macey looked pointedly at me and I sighed. She walked over to me and hissed, "Sort it out." Before she jerked her head to the corridor.
Then I walked out of the room, down the corridor and in to Cammie's room. "You could knock, you know." She said, barely looking up from the vogue that Macey had her studying.
"Homework?" I asked and she nodded, sighing at the same time and then she laughed. But as soon as it had come, it had gone again.
Cammie POV
"What did you want?" I asked and he shrugged. "Then why are you here?" I asked a different question, since he didn't know the answer to the first.
"I just wanted to see what you were up to." He said and I nodded.
I looked at him, he was still smirking - I really need to invest in a lock. "Come to get angry and storm off again, because I could really do without your temperamental behaviour." I carried on flicking the pages like I couldn't care less.
"I am not temperamental!" he exclaimed, his smirk was dislodged for all of two seconds.
"Is that why you stormed off yesterday when I was with Josh?" I asked and he shrugged.
"So what was Jimmy like?" he asked and I laughed.
"You actually want to talk about Josh?" I asked and he smirked.
"I don't want to talk about Jimmy, no." He said and I nodded, he came and sat on the bed next to me. I shifted up so that he would have enough space. "I guess I just wondered, why you chose him out of all the boys at the shopping city." He looked at me.
"Why do you care?" I asked, was it possible that we were having a moment?
"I don't care." He said, moment definitely gone. He stood back up and walked to the door.
Bex POV
"What the hell is his problem?" Nick asked as he walked past Zach and sat on the sofa next to Macey, his arm wrapped around her shoulder.
"He is obviously in love with her." Macey said mater-of-factly and we all stared at her, eyes wide open. "He was clearly jealous yesterday."
"We so have to get you to make a boy translator." Liz said and I laughed.
I looked at the corridor as Zach burst in to her room. "That would really help her." I said and I looked back towards everyone.
"I just don't think that he knows that he likes her." Macey added and we all looked back down the corridor to where the door was slammed shut.
"How can he not know?" Grant asked and I looked at Macey.
Her eyebrows, disbelievingly, "He sees her as his mission, and it would be showing a sign of weakness if he actually let himself become dependent on someone." Wow, she is good. It's like she knows everything, not that I would EVER tell her that.
"What happened to the cameras that you put in her room?" Liz asked, I almost jumped on her and hugged her – key word: Almost.
"Yes Lizzie." I said and she laughed.
Grant feigned looking worried and said, "Oh NO! They're rubbing off on you girl!" I laughed and then switched on the laptop.
"Find it." I said and Liz pulled up a screen.
We watched as he looked at her, the sound wasn't good so we had to try and lip read what they were saying. "Next time we are so putting bugs too, not just a camera."
"Who forgot to put the bugs?" I asked and Grant looked away suspiciously. I slapped the back of his head, but he just grabbed my waist and pulled me down to watch the screen.
"I am not temperamental!" Grant filled in for what Zach was saying.
"He is so temperamental!" I exclaimed and everyone laughed.
"Is that why you stormed off yesterday when I was with Josh?" Macey said what Cammie was saying.
"Yes." I said again and Nick slapped the back of my head. "HEY!" I yelled.
"What you can do it to us, and we can't do it to you?" he asked, he had a fair point. "We don't need a running commentary." He told me and I nodded.
"So what was Jimmy like?" Jonas asked in place of Zach.
I laughed, "He is so jealous." I said and looked around. Ok, good! No one looks like they are going to hit me. "OW!" I yelled as five hands came down on the back of my head. "I am going to get you all back for this." I muttered.
"You actually want to talk about Josh?" Cammie.
"I don't want to talk about Jimmy, no." Zach. "I guess I just wondered, why you chose him out of all the boys at the shopping city."
"Ahh!" all the girls said.
"Why do you care?" Cammie.
"I don't care." Zach was back to being Zach.
WE turned away from the screen. "Seriously, can't he just tell her how he feels?" I asked, Macey just laughed and patted me on my head.
"Let me say the answer to this one." Liz piped up and I looked at, we were seriously rubbing off on her. "He's scared."
"Who's scared?" Came a familiar, cocky voice from behind us and we all put a hand on the laptop and slammed it shut.
"No one." Macey said calmly and she flopped on to Nick, curling her legs up and looking at Zach. "Oh, who am I kidding?" she asked herself. "Just go and tell her!" She was frustrated, and even though Nick put an arm around her, she still managed to wiggle out of his grasp, get up and push Zach all the way to outside Cammie's room. "DO it." I heard her say and we all stared at him expectantly.
But he just looked down, defeated and we all stared at him, "She wants someone like 'Jimmy'" he put air quotes around his name – which we all knew he actually knew – and then stormed past us and out in to the front garden. I guess we have to go on pretending like he hates her.
Well, we could do that, or we could do things my way – insert evil laugh here!
I know this isn't the best chapter, but I would still like you to review. Should there be Zammie soon? I was thinking like in the next few chapters?
Please review and tell me what you thought of the Chapter and anything else you want to tell me :p
